Mistakes To Be Avoided

Focusing too much on mastering the content at the cost of practicing answer writing under exam conditions

During the entire period of preparation, maintaining a perfect balance b/w the two is the key to score well in this paper. This course will help you develop a habit of maintaining that balance.

Underplaying the importance of building a bureaucratic perspective

This course personally designed by a former bureaucrat helps you immensely in building the required bureaucratic perspective needed to write effective answers in your exam.

Ignoring the importance of consistent feedback to improve your answer writing performance

Having someone who could guide you during your writing practice is an invaluable asset. Therefore, this course relies heavily on building a consistent writing habit in you, so that you are able to see your own progress.

Underplaying the role of peer to peer discussions in enriching your content mastery

In this course, you get access to an ecosystem where the opportunity to engage and learn from a community of future colleagues is invaluable.

Amazon Book Review

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ After reading this book what I feel that this book is best for GS paper 4. In some other books which are in market, they are too complex specially thinkers and decision-making part (quite fancy part for UPSC) & at the same time language of these books are vague ...But when I studied this book what I feel that this is the complete package.
